The short documentary film Money from the Dead reveals the daily lives of a group of the Chinese Benteng community involved in the funeral industry. Koh Edy, the owner of a coffin-making business, continues his family tradition with deep dedication. His story intersects with Koh Kiki, a maker of teng who carefully preserves the details of his craft, and Kak Luna, a mortician who provides the final touch with respect and reverence. Although they do not know each other personally, they are connected within a complex network that sustains funeral rituals and preserves ancestral culture amidst modernization.
